    Hey, I remember this one from the challenge
    I really love the expression on his face, the falling cogs, and most of all the way you painted the copper wings. The colors are great.

    This was one of my favorite entries from that competition, (and I was one of the judges!)  I wish this piece would have placed higher, but I did the best I could! Either way, it's a terrific painting. Great posing, colors, emotion, and rendering!

      Thanks very much, Michael!  I was happy to get the honourable mention, but it means alot  that you were rooting for it to place higher - there was alot of really incredible work being done for that challenge - thanks for the kind words. Great to see you on CGhub...Cheers!

    these crazy wings, they are heavy and broken, but they still keeps the drawing flying. It's awesome, nice job !
